Select from each drop-down menu the option that creates the most accurate statement, given the information provided.
A. From cycle 17 to cycle 18 the amount of time spent focusing on celestial phenomena outside of Earth’s solar system___________.
Solar System Concentration in Cycle 17 = 5% ; Other Concentration = 95%
Solar System Concentration in Cycle 18 = 3% ; Other Concentration = 98%
So we can see that the time spent focusing on phenomena outside Solar System is increases by 3% in Cycle 18.
A. decreased by < 5%
B. increased by < 5%
C. doubled
D. tripled
B. No category of phenomena experienced a change in proportional focus greater than a___________from cycle 17 to cycle 18.
Kindly Refer the image Below:
We can see that from cycle 17 to cycle 18:
Maximum increase = 200% (Extrasolar Planets)
Maximum decrease = -62% (Resolved Stellar Populations).
So Maximum change is 200% increase.
A. a 5 percentage point decrease
B. 50% decrease
C. 5 percentage point increase
D. 200% increase

A. From cycle 17 to cycle 18 the amount of time spent focusing on celestial phenomena outside of Earth’s solar system___________.
% of time for Extrasolar planets in cycle 17 = 3
% of time for Extrasolar planets in cycle 18 = 9
Thus, the amount of time for extrasolar planets tripled ( since the duration of the cycle 17 and 18 remains same).
D tripled
B. No category of phenomena experienced a change in proportional focus greater than a___________from cycle 17 to cycle 18.
Cycle 17 Cycle 18 %change (starting from Extrasolar, clockwise)
3 9 +200
5 5 nil
26 30 +15
4 4 nil
12 11 -8.3
12 12 nil
7 9 +28
6 4 -33
5 6 +20
13 5 - 61
2 2 nil
5 3 -40
Thus,
A. a 5 percentage point decrease - Resolved stellar Population has 8 percent point decrease.
B. 50% decrease - Resolved stellar Population decreased by 61 %
C. 5 percentage point increase - Extrasolar has 6 percent point increase.
D. 200% increase - Extrasolar tripled and hence has exactly 200% increase.
There is no increase greater than 200%.
Hence, D 200% increase.
% of time for Extrasolar planets in cycle 17 = 3
% of time for Extrasolar planets in cycle 18 = 9
Thus, the amount of time for extrasolar planets tripled ( since the duration of the cycle 17 and 18 remains same).

Thus,
A. a 5 percentage point decrease - Resolved stellar Population has 8 percent point decrease.
B. 50% decrease - Resolved stellar Population decreased by 61 %
C. 5 percentage point increase - Extrasolar has 6 percent point increase.
D. 200% increase - Extrasolar tripled and hence has exactly 200% increase.
There is no increase greater than 200%.
Hence, D 200% increase.
